Both are down now. And one more plane is heading for Washington.

I just hope the US government will keep a cool head and not retaliate to 
fast.  If the talibans are behind it. as seems probable at the moment, I hope 
the world communities can agree to crush them. Besides the unkown number who 
died in US they have murdered tens of thousands in Afgahnistan and burned 
their own cities to the ground.

It's a bitter irony for the US government that it was the CIA who helped the 
talibans to power.

them.
2) 2 planes have crashed into the Pentagon, and part of it has collapsed

all network stations(abc,cbs,fox) are preempted and are live. For this type

I agree that all terrorist shall be stopped. But if in the process the open 
society becomes a repressive one the terrorists have won. The authorities 
must fight terrorism very hard there is no question about that.

If the US starts assasinating political leaders that opens a very nasty 
Pandoras box. A free for all to kill political leaders.

I agree here. What we done unto others as a country WILL be done unto us, no matter if 
we like it or not. In fact we'll probably get it back twofold, or more.

Just think if the terrorists were saying "no more of this nice guy stuff... start with 
the Prez and work your way down..." Don't know about you, but that would make me 
really unhappy.

P.S. to-day it not a good day to mess with Eschelon

While it is soothing to the emotions to vent anger in this manner, it is
counter productive to actual solutions.  What is needed is a concerted
effort, world wide, to *STOP* all terrorism.  Unfortunately, there are areas
of the world where people feel free to allow terrorists to hide and mingle
with the general population.  Attacking these areas only allows you to
become a terrorist, too, thus increasing the problem, not decreasing it.

I would think this is a perfect case for Linux and distributed data.  If all
those people who conglomerate in the WTC each day were to telecommute, there
wouldn't be such an obvious and easy target for terrorists.  Secure
networking is the only way to make this a reality.  But heck, this is the
*information* age, not the stone, bronze, iron, industrial or atomic age.
Let us proceed accordingly, and *not* by sinking to their level.

Prayers for and best wishes to the survivors and families of those lost.
Hope for world change as a result.  Love to all (love the sinner, hate the
sin).

No, they recanted and said they were just looking for quick exposure. I

Oh, crapola
It is war, one we must now activly engage in and win. It will be a war like 
no other, with no rules of engagement. No Geneva convention as the other side 
does not follow those rules. When sand gets thrown in your eyes its time to 
abandon queensberry rules. No other way about it. If they could have been 
sure to get Bush they would have dropped one into the whitehouse also, but 
chose a target with more casualties instead. Bush in a bumbling, indecisive 
idiot and they want him to remain in place.

We are under seige. Our borders are now CLOSED, airline traffic is halted, 
the net is clogged. We have no reliable means of coast to coast travel, 
amtrak is a joke. We are a changed country so we might as well jump in with 
both feet and get them bloody right of the bat. Heightened security is now 
the norm. The US military worldwide is now at delta, that is like you move, 
you die.

We no longer will have life as we *knew* it in the US. And IMHO, for that 
reason someone in charge of the terrorist activity should die publicly as 
well as the leaders of countries that activly support and harbor the 
terrotists. This a day of infamy(again).

 It's time to demonstrate to the Islamic fanatics that Christians know how to conduct 
a Jihad.
It's not enough to get the people who did this but the governments who protect them 
and give
them the freedom to act. We have lost enough American lives. For fifty years only two 
cities
have been members of the Ground Zero Club, maybe it's time to add a third.

Those who suggest such a thing clearly demonstrate that they, like the 
Crusaders, fail to understand what Christ had in mind.  Politics is one 
thing, religion another, and I thank God our founding fathers understood 
this.  This understanding is one of the things separates us most clearly from

Uh. The Box is open. We are at war, in case there are people who haven't

And, it would be great to kill political leaders for once, instead of

In the case of the over seas flights, I think otherwise. The terrorists most likely 
want to insure that they get close enough to their target that they themselvs are able

An somber note from another list:

==

I am still in shock over what happened today at the World 
Trade Center. My prayers go out to anyone who was affected 
by this terrible act on mankind. I hope all your loved ones 
are alright. For those of you who may not know, I was on 
one of the top floors of the World Trade center the first 
time it was bombed back in 1993. The folks I spent two and 
a half hours with walking down over 100 flights of stairs 
were amazing. They were all calm and worked together to 
make sure everyone got down safely. There were four guys 
who carried a man in a wheel chair down 50 flights of 
stairs. Others were comforting those who were crying. What 
saddened me this morning was that these good people may 
have been in the buildings today when the buildings 
collapsed. I will never forget the experience or those 
great people. Please say a prayer for them and their 
families.

I doubt that.  Once a plane is in the air, it is surprisingly easy to
keep it in the air and steer it anywhere you want to.

Let's not forget that some terrorists, (even the extremists among the
extremists who would kill themselves for a cause) have day jobs, are
ex-military etc.  It's not that hard to believe one or two skilled could
train a few to do this.

What will you say when they poison the water supply of NYC ? How about a
million dead? How about a nuclear device in NYC? Three million dead?
These are the same madmen who destroyed Beruit. These are agents of a dark
age. Civil society cannot exist
while such people are allowed to remain free.  If killing is the only way,
then, it is the way. Suggest an alternative that hasn't been tried and

Try this on for size. The Muslims who attacked us and have been attacking us have been 
doing so
in the name of Jihad. Those who lose their lives in this Holy War are supposed to end 
up in
paradise with Allah. In their concept of Jihad every American citizen be he Jew, 
Christian,
California Vegetable Worshiper, what have you is a legitimate target. This is not 
politics, but
perverted religion. Even the Japanese, in their sneak attack on Pearl Harbor, 
concentrated on
military targets not civilians. Yet in the end, we dropped two nukes on them to save 
American
lives. If we let the current terrorists get away with it we open the door to making any
American anywhere in the world a target. If we let the foreign governments who have 
aided them
to go unpunished we insure that this will keep on happening. The Christian answer just 
doesn't
work. Dead people can't turn the other cheek. That leaves only the political solution. 
We could
take the traditional road, issue a strongly worded protest and embargo the offending
government's Brazil nuts. Or, we can decide that Americans and anyone else has a right 
to live
unmolested by the religion and politics of others and make an example of the offending
government in such a way that not other government dares to follow their lead. If that 
means
opening the Kabul Glass pit to tourists, so be it. Before you object, take a look at 
the news
on tv showing the joy of the Palestinians after the attack and listen to some of the 
Islamic
governments who have told the tv reporters how terrible they feel about that attack, 
but that
we did bring it on ourselves. That's not politics that Jihad.

According to my contact, pilots are trained to crash their planes into the

You misunderstand me.  My point was that this is not a religious war for us, 
and shouldn't be.  In terms of national security there must be a swift and 
complete elimination of whomever was responsible.  That's not a Christian 
thing, it's a political survival reaction.  I'm concerned about what will 
happen to Muslims in this country if a bunch of "Christians" make 
this a religious issue.  I don't need Beirut in my back yard, thanks.

Re: New York WTC

Before someone becomes an apologist for the Muslims, name me a country where
Muslims live in appreciable numbers where they do not cause violent
disturbances. In the Middle East, the Muslims are fighting and killing
until secular governments are taken over by religious leaders. I believe
Syria and Iraq are two places where that has NOT happened because the
secular leaders are just as vicious as the Muslims. In Algeria, the Muslims
fighting to take over the government routinely slaughter civilians. In Egypt
have we forgotten who killed Sadat after he made peace with Israel? Have we
forgotten the slaughter of tourists in Egypt?
The regime in Afghanistan is a pure Islamic dictatorship.
Iran replaced its secular dictator with an Islamic dictatorship and promptly
found itself in a brutal war to overthrow the secular dictatorship of Sadam
Hussein. Sadam won because he was more brutal (nerve gas.)
In Indonesian and the Phillipines, Muslims are engaged in violence, brutal
killing violence, against non-Muslims. Indonesian used to be used to show
the "gentle face of Islam." In Africa, Muslims kill and enslave non-Muslims
in the Sudan. In Nigeria, Muslims are imposing Islamic law on non-Muslims.
One hundred people were killed there in a city which has no history of inter
ethnic violence on account of this on the last day of the Durban racism
conference in S.A. I don't believe the Durban conference addressed this
issue, although I could be wrong.
In summary, any country with a substantial Muslim population is in for some
bad times. That includes now many countries in Europe and the USA. In the
USA, we have substantial populations of minorities. Only the Puerto Ricans
(one time) and the Muslims (repeatedly in recent years) have carried out
terrorist attacks against this country. That should tell you something.

Preposterous...   That's like telling women that if they can't get the knife 
away from a rapist, and crossing their legs doesn't work, they should commit 
suicide!

What is accomplished by driving a plane into the ground?  We killed 1 or 2 
hijackers but the 90 passengers were 'collateral damage'?   Does that sound 
sensible to you?

This is the situation. A pilot knows or is told he is to fly his plane into
an object. Once convinced of this, he is trained to do as I have related.

What do you mean by very little trouble?
Bombing the trade center in 1993? They just broke up a plot to bomb certain
airports in 2000. How many more plots have been nipped in the bud we haven't
heard about?
Beside, this is just the start. Once having tasted such fine victory, why
should they stop. Notice the celebrations by their fellow Muslims reported

Mehbe so, but I think you would have to agree that once a jet airliner is in 
the air, it doesn't take much pilot training to operate the controls and 
maybe diddle with the throttles a bit.

It would only take a few hours of training.

I proposed the following in a note to Fox News  (their 'talking heads' kept 
wondering  who could train pilots to fly jet liners)

=

If you put your 5 yr old son behind the wheel of car (airplane) in the empty 
parking lot of a shopping mall (the sky), got the car moving (takeoff) and 
told him to "drive into store   xyz"  (the WTC), don't you think he could do 
it?

It's the same with a heavy jet.  Once it is in the vicinity of the WTC, it 
just takes some control movements to accomplish the task.  A few hours of 
training is all that is required.

i mean "very little trouble." the litany of attacks you provided were 
without exception from groups outside the u.s., even though in the 
initial wtc case and the lincoln tunnel case they did take two 
apartments in the u.s.

the muslim communities here have been entirely peaceful. to say 
otherwise would be to characterize the puerto rican community because 
of the bombings by the faln decades ago.

i have no more sympathy for wild-eyed diaperheads than you do, and in 
fact on one exciting afternoon in november 1993 i was chased at high 
speed around two of the ring roads surrounding kuwait city by a 
cranky iranian with an ak-47 -- when i got back to my hotel, the 
safir, there was a fax under my door from the state department saying 
to be concerned about iranians because rushdie was in the u.s. -- so 
i have a little experience in this stuff. but it's a fallacy of logic 
to take the position you have, because there is a difference between 
saying "all terrorists are muslims" and saying "all muslims are 
terrorists."

Today there is not. We will so what a hundred tomorrows hold...
I saw a documentary on this subject once that showed some of the group or Islamic 
extremists  who were actually connected with one of these horrible things a few years 
ago (I forget which one now) had an office in Richardson, TX. They interviewed one man 
in particular, I forget his name, who is an American citizen and boasted of planned 
and hoped for Islamic uprisings in America and so forth in exactly the way the 
internationals do

Just because you don't seem them, don't mean they aren't there. Or, should I say, here.

I was about to make the same observation. I have a friend of about 15 years, who lived 
with her parents in Saudi as a little girl. One day her and some friends ventures 
outside of the little American military based into town  with remarkably bad timing - 
just as a man was publicly having his hand cut of for theft. This, of course, was 
because he broke Islamic law. Despite the fact that they wern't Islamic or even 
citizens, they were forced to witness the event, because that' the law there.

HISTORY AND RELIGION LESSON FOR APOLOGISTS FOR ISLAMIC TERROR
Islam is the youngest of the Western religions. Like the others, it allows
for only one God, theirs, and allows of only one interpretation of God's
will, their interpretation. However, Islam goes much farther. Much like
Communism, which was supposed to be an economic theory but extended its
authority to every aspect of human activity, Islam is supposed to be a
religion but also controls all other aspects of life.
It is a
set of laws which all must obey or be made to pay severe consequences.
Islam derives from the concept of
submission. As such, it is really incompatible with the modern Western
world. They know it. Most Americans don't.
Islam provide an emotional and spiritual home for people who
would otherwise be considered mentally unbalanced. Dying for
and killing innocents for Islam is celebrated in their traditions,
right up to the present day. Imagine if anyone in this country (USA)
celebrated the attack in Oklahoma City.
It is an expansive religion. By denying many rights to women, 
it maintains a high birth rate and thus overwhelms other groups, 
like modern Christians or Jews, which
afford their women more rights and thus experience a lower birth rate.
This influences current events. The
Balkans are a good example of this. A great thorn of contention between
Christian and Muslim groups, before they just starting killing each other,
was the tendency of Muslin women to run away to marry Christian men, because
these women wanted to escape the confines of Islamic law. The women who
remained in Islam had a higher birth rate. Thus Kosovo converted from a Serb
to Albanian majority with subsequent murderous attacks on the Serb minority.
These attacks were based on nothing but a sense they were not getting their
fair share. 
The Serbs responded to
protect the Christian Serbs. The West objected to the heavy handed
approach,
and now we have troops in the Balkans who will never leave. They were sent
to protect the Muslim majority. Now they are trying to keep these same
Muslims from attacking Serbia and Macedonia.
People who say Muslims are peaceful just haven't had the benefit of living
near a large Muslim population yet. That may change in the near future.
Notice the marked violence France is experiencing with its large and growing
population of North African aka Muslims. For example, they just had a standoff with a 
North
African who was using a missile launcher against the police. Gangs from North
African ethnic suburbs around Paris have gone on rampages, even into Paris.
These remarks may sound intolerant. They all based on fact and they are all
realistic. Just because you say it can't happen here doesn't mean it won't.

Good if true:

1) They were caught beforehand, that many less innocent people dead and 
wounded; and

2) Maybe with some interrog... err, "interview" subjects, perhaps some info 
can be gained on the source/origin and scope of the attacks - at least as 
plausible collateral.

This is going to be depressing if the whole affair was done by 10 guys with
knives.
So much for the highly sophisticated state sponsored terrorism idea.
Imagine how deflated FDR would have been after Pearl Harbor if instead of
referring to the Japanese Empire he had to say something like:
"When we find out who bombed Pearl Harbor, we will find out where they are
and do something bad to them and to their hosts. Our
major suspect is some rich Saudi guy in Afghanistan who used to help us kill
Russians before the Russians became good but who now likes to kill
Americans, instead."
"However,", he would have to add, "so far all we have are ten guys with
knives. And, they are all dead."

Re: New York WTC

2001-09-11 Thread Joel Hammer

It just occurred to me.
The only two Presidents who opposed Israel building on the West Bank, Jimmy
Carter and George Bush the First, were both attacked by certain lobbies and
were one term Presidents. GB actually held up money for Israel, I seem to
recall, earning the fury of some people. Jimmy Carter was also abused by the
same people for opposing West Bank expansion.
Mr. Clinton was a great friend of Israel and did nothing I know of to really
discourage this expansion. All the fuss about the West Bank really exploded during
Clinton's term. Clinton let this Ben Laden guy live after the embassy
bombings, despite his high profile bombing of Afghanistan and that drug
factory in the Sudan.  He left town just in time. This country will be cleaning
up his messes for a long time. What confirmation of the wisdom of allowing only two
terms for President.
SO, I have to conclude, that the American voters backed politicians who
supported expansion by Israel into the West Bank. Why they were unmindful of
potential consequences of such actions is a mystery.

Re: New York WTC

2001-09-11 Thread Keith Antoine


Since 5.30 am this morning I have listened/watched to what happened in the US.
I thought that i would get online and offer my sympathies to the citizens of 
that country and tell you what I thought. However something stopped me as I 
thought what I am seeing and hearing is the first knee jerk reaction of a 
peoples that are in shock.

I also live in a complacent country/society that is far away from all those
clowns, idiots, bombers etc, that exist in other countries. We as a nation are
rather insignificant on the world scene, anything that happened here would 
have little effect on world polotics, but the US, or GB, Russia thats 
different.

I have read that which has been written by some users of this list and I hope
that far more sanity will prevail with time. Ther are no winners in this type
of terrorist attack anymore than all Christains are alike, are all muslims 
alike. In the middle ages there were some atrocious acts by so called pious 
christians against those that held slightly differing beliefs.

You world may now in the light of what has happened stop and think why 
Australia has this 'Boat Peoples' problem. One must remembere they are _NOT_
refugees, they have money and pay their way to illegally force their way into 
this country. The ratio of men to women and children in the groups is about 
10-15 to 1, there were 400 men in that contraversial group.

Just for your information too, we have the biggest Muslim nation sitting just 
above us 280Mill to our 21mill, but so far the relations have been cordial. 
There have been incidents between Indonesia and Australia, but more 
internally than externally, we really do not want to annoy them either.

Wea also have a problem here with some lebanese gangs in Sydney, that do not 
like being referred to as lebanese, btw they are shi'ite Muslims.

I grew up in the beggining of WW11, in London and experienced first hand 
bombing, aand being bombed out when they flattened Liverpoool, where I had 
been sent to get me out of the so called 'terror bombing' 1940 style. I saw 
Belsen Belsen and Dachau in 1951. I also had a Stepfather here in Australia
that was a prisoner of the Japs, Burma Road and Changi for 4 years. Someone 
said that the Japs at least targetted military and not civilians. Whoever it 
was was dead wrong, they did whatever they liked (Rape of Nanking).

So for many a year this sort of thing has taken place but not with the 
terrible effect and immediacy that the new media can give it. It is 
unfortunate that the leader of the world politically, also becomes the main 
target of 'HATE' that the disaffected, twisted leadership use to cover their
shortcomings. In hindsight this has all been predicated and all that was 
necessary was for them to wait till the US lowered its guard: became somewhat
complacent. Dare I say thank god that they didn't use biological weapons as 
well;; This time!

We see many movies whereby we become innured to the sort of thing that we saw 
today. I am sure that many who may have switched on at the crutial time would 
be forgiven if they thought they were watching such a movie, I did.

I have fought guerillas and been in wars as many have. I have heard of the 
war to end all wars, yet never lived in a time without one. I would like to 
say lets STOP this madness, wipe it from the face of the earth, but thats a 
pipe dream so much retoric. So long as there remains a man or woman on this 
earth who is dissatisfied with their lot and is jealous of his/her neighbour.

Again I tender my sincere condolences; I believe there could be Aussies in 
that holacaust. I am also firm in the belief that many of the world 
intelligence services and undercover organisations in their bumbling bring 
about more of what we see the end results of than polotics does.

Weird is right...   I can tell many a story of rainy nights circling that 
mother, or drilling down thru the 'hole' that always seemed to exist right 
over the airport.   Remember all of the accidents there including the guy who 
tried to 'drill' a hole through the mountain on final approach to  26.  
Didn't work out too well.

HPN was usually my alternate.

On Sep 11 Joel Hammer was heard saying:

->Saudi is a strict Islamic nation.  You can be put to death for a minor
->infraction of Islamic law. (Man and woman unmarried sleeping in a tent
->together.) So, what's to fight about?


*** I notice some people prefering the Islamic direction... but has
anybody, just for a second, taken the possibility into account that it
could be an internal attack?

Couldn't it be e.g. the extreme right? After having seen a documentary on
TV I was amazed with the degree of their organisation: Underground
computer network, military training, etc, etc...

That sounds easy compared to my friend Skip who lands his restored Luscombe
on the mountain next to Mount Mohawk up in the NW corner of Connecticut.
The strip he flies out of makes the cow pasture I flew an Aronca Champ out
of seem huge by comparison.

never been a really good one, and even those that are most tolerable
are arbitrary, cruel, grasping and unintelligent.
